so i saw this cute idea in a martha stewart magazine a while back, but never did it because her version involved sewing (which i can’t do!).

so instead i used one of the felt pockets (already sewn into a purse shape), punched some holes in the top and strung some of the yummy corduroy ribbon through them as the strap. add some fun flowers & embellishments, and you’re done….and the best part, no sewing at all

Hello!

Over the past weekend I attended a beautiful wedding–summer is always a favorite time for weddings and parties.  I noticed the decorations and remembered how much I love the look of a “flower cone” or traditionally they are called “tussie mussies”.  As some of the flower arrangements that were placed on the church pews started to flop around, I thought that if they had been put in a little container such as a cone, how much better they would have stayed in place.

This cone is made with new Creative Cafe Spirit White Die cut paper.  There are several different colors available and they are so simple to roll up and hold together with the pretty pearl or velvet brads.  Add some of the Velvet Scalloped Ribbon, Die Cut Chipboard Shapes, then fill them with flowers and you have an easy but beautiful accessory for your wedding, shower, or garden party.

 Happy creating!
